Chemin Grenier

At the southern tip of Mauritius, the commune of Souillac watches over the wild, intact nature and attempts to preserve the beauty of the area’s landscapes that account for the reputation of the island. Far from the hustle and bustle of the northern coast, the deep southern region possesses vast expanses of forest barely marked by human presence, except for a few small villages with picturesque names among the fields of sugar cane. The inhabitants here have conserved their art de vivre and their traditions such as harvesting the tea manually by women wearing saris. Time seems to have stood still here. The southern region is very popular with discerning tourists and offers a number of activities including the Vanilla Park and the Rochester Falls located very near Souillac, both unforgettable attractions.

An ayurvedic retreat
